Naturally, Baldur’s Gate 3 fans are baffled by this news, mainly because they can’t help but respect it.

“Whoever runs the social media accounts for Larian knows EXACTLY what they are doing. They know exactly which buttons to press to keep millions of eyes on them. They know how to use company goodwill in a fun and funny way.»

Many have commented on how much they hate and love this tease from the development team at the same time.
